Most founders think they're 90% done. They're at 10%.

An AI prototype looks finished in a weekend. Real auth, a real database, real error handling and real infrastructure still take senior engineering judgment. That gap costs founders around six months.

beyond the wow is the AI-native MVP studio I lead, powered by Gearheart. We pressure-test the idea, validate a clickable prototype with real customers, and ship a production MVP you can sell.

Vitalii Sydorenko speaking at a founder event

I still introduce myself as a serial entrepreneur.

I started in Ukraine, built a media monitoring company to market leadership, lived through a merger, a scale-up and a painful downsizing, then built a startup that never found product-market fit. Those lessons are what I bring to every founder I work with today, from San Francisco.

~2012Founded LOOQME, which reached a 40% share of Ukraine's media-monitoring market and served 300+ companies, including McDonald's, Lenovo, Deloitte and Samsung.

NextJoined a startup studio and VC fund to evaluate ideas and investments.

JiffsyRaised funding, went through Startup Wise Guys and won a Google grant. We onboarded 30+ US and Canadian clients, missed product-market fit, and shut it down.

GearheartPartner and CBO at Gearheart, co-founded by my brother Volodymyr. The studio has shipped 80+ products, including SmartSuite, named 2024 SaaS Startup of the Year.
